Illuminating memorable events

Artistic Illumination is about creating images. We use our lighting equipment like an artist wields a paint brush to
create a work of art. Our mission is to create the ideal environment with every lighting design we produce to make your
event outstanding. Light by its very nature is transient so in effect we are crafting memories.

Our team is led by Michael Jones shown to the left, who is your main contact and our chief lighting guy. He also knows
a fair bit about sound as he's been deejaying and running dances for quite a few years. If it's a small job he's likely
the guy you'll come to know. When the jobs get bigger, we have several subcontractors who work with us as needed. We have
also come to know some very talented people along the way such as interior designers and photographers so if you need a
referral, we can probably help.

Who we are

We're a team of professionals dedicated to creating the ideal environment for your event to achieve its purpose.
We focus on the lighting and sound so important to producing a memorable event. Tell us your vision and we will make
it happen as smoothly and as painlessly as possible and leave you and your guests with a lasting favourable impression.

We are an eco-friendly organization: our lighting equipment uses about 10% of the energy that traditional equipment
uses. Our LED bulbs last between 10,000 and 50,000 hours versus 50 to 75 hours depending on the fixture. We create little
waste, reuse and recycle almost everything, and because our equipment is so small and light, transporting it leaves a
very small footprint.

A bit of history

We started out creating dances and became effectively our first customer. Most affordable venues we rented were
quite seedy looking with the overhead lights on. We needed an easy and fairly quick means of creating an ambience
suitable to an enjoyable evening of dancing. Whatever we came up with had to be temporary leaving no trace when we
went home. And so an idea was born!

Using lighting to create the ambience we wanted was the perfect solution! Unfortunately, it took many, many hours,
days, and months to learn how to do it well. It also took a great deal of money to buy the necessary equipment. We
soon realized that many people and events could benefit from our investment and so another idea was born and here we
are. Artistic Illumination was conceived to provide you with the benefit of our experience at a fraction of the cost.
